📋 About This Mod
Outdated MOD!
All of this Mods content were moved over to the AIO Version of the Girls. This mod only remains for archive purposes.
This Mod change the face and body appearance of Serana, our beloved vampire lady. Choose between her redhead, pale skin vampire look, or a healed, more humanoid version.
Additionally, I made a version where Serana is about 9,6f tall, the same height as the famous Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil Village. Because vampire ladies have to be tall these times, right?
Installation
With Vortex: (recommended)
Click on the "Download with Vortex" button and activate the .rar files afterwords in Vortex.
For Manuel Installation:
Drop the 'Data' folder coming with my files into your Skyrim SE game Folder (.../Steam/steamapps/common/Skyrim Special Edition/...). Don't forget toactivate the .esp in your Mod Managing-Tool!
Requirements
This Mod has some serious hard Requirements, but there are worth it. Trust me. Let me explain.
Serana's looks are based on the mind-blowing work of COtR - HQ Characters. Even if I wanted, I wasn't able to make mod a totally standalone
version because of all the fancy stuff COtR does. Besides that, I WANT you to download this mod, because it has way too less Downloads (in my
opinion). And it's also a way for me to give something back to the COtR Team.
COtR's Characters are based on custom Races, so you need also the RaceCompatibility-Patch, so your Skyrim can handle it. If any of these hard Requirements is not installed properly, your Game WILL CRASH as soon it tries to enter a Cell with Serana in it!
The following mods are no hard requirements, but Serana runs much smoother with it. She should possibly work without them, but at the risk
of weird behaviors, like texture issues or broken physics. And you should download them anyway, because there are awesome ;)
For her Body to be show correctly, you need "Touched by Dibella-SMP" and all of its own requirements. This includes a working HDT System like "Faster HDT-SMP" and a proper Skeleton like "XP32 Maximum Skeleton". Last but not least, you need a compatible CBBE Body Texture. I recommend "Demoniac CBBE" for a look close to the ones in my Screens.
For the use of her Face Preset, you need RaceMenu. And for her Body Preset, Bodyslide, of course.
This mod overhauls Serana's face and body, offering a redhead vampire look or a healed humanoid version, plus a 9.6-foot-tall Lady Dimitrescu-inspired variant. It is now outdated, with all content moved to the AIO version, and requires COtR and RaceCompatibility patches. For Skyrim SE players who want a specific Serana appearance and are willing to meet the hard requirements.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Gives Serana a fresh look, including a fun Lady Dimitrescu height option that's a nice nod to RE Village.
- Decent download count (14k) shows interest, even if endorsements are modest (38).
- Clear installation instructions for both Vortex and manual, so you won't get lost.
⚠️ Cons
- Outdated and superseded by the AIO version, so you're getting an archived mod that won't be updated.
- Hard requirements (COtR and RaceCompatibility) are mandatory, and missing them crashes the game—no room for error.
- Potential compatibility issues with other mods that alter Serana or use custom races, since it relies on COtR's framework.
For Skyrim SE players who want a specific Serana appearance and are willing to install COtR and RaceCompatibility patches. It's also for fans of tall vampire ladies who want a Lady Dimitrescu vibe. Skip if you don't want to deal with hard dependencies or prefer a standalone overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure COtR and RaceCompatibility are installed and activated before this mod, or the game will crash when entering Serana's cell.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex to handle the .rar files and avoid manual placement errors.
- If you're new to modding, consider the AIO version instead, since this one is archived and may have outdated assets.
